This school belongs to a series of schools originating from a school created in 1994 by Nguyen Van Hieu, and Tran Thanh Van and funded by Rencontres du Vietnam. It became an international school in 1995 with participation of Vietnamese and foreign students. The school is also funded by the Asia-Pacific Centre for Theoretical Physics (APCTP), Pohang, Korea, as an external activity.

The 22nd VSOP will be devoted to particle physics, both theory and experiment. In addition to fundamental knowledge of Quantum Field Theory, Standard Model (SM), QCD and Monte Carlo methods, the lectures will cover experimental methods for collider searches (especially at the LHC), theories beyond the SM, dark matter models and their experimental prospects.

Reception: at Seagull Hotel, August 31, from 18:00 - 19:00. There will be a welcome drink starting at 19:00.

Financial Support: Some financial support will be possible for participants from developing countries. Priority will be given to master/PhD students and junior researchers from the Asia-Pacific region. Very-good bachelor students who have taken some quantum-field-theory courses are encouraged to apply. Those attending the entire scientific program will be given advantage.
